Historical coverage, with context
A question can carry multiple topic tags. Counts and marks are independent per topic; adding rows can count the same question more than once. Use the data to explore past papers alongside the syllabus.

ALL YEARS · COMPLETE ARCHIVE
Compare topics across all years
2024–2026 · 3 archived years · 3 papers. Compare total tagged coverage, recurrence and the observed range across years. This analysis uses the selected range and stays independent of the paper year selector.
Average = total matched tagged marks ÷ all 3 papers in this range. Years without a matching tag add no matched marks to this calculation; this does not establish zero actual exam coverage. Read the average alongside the years tagged.
The observed range uses only years with matched data, dividing each year’s marks by its paper count. Topic tags overlap, so totals cannot be added into a whole-paper marks split.

03 · UNDERSTAND THE COVERAGE
What these numbers mean
Check the coverage and matching method before comparing years or choosing study priorities.
How topics are matched
Only normalized labels matching the archived 2026 syllabus are included. 134 raw tag/year rows were omitted or consolidated.
For duplicate aliases, the existing row with the most questions is selected. Overlapping aliases are not summed. This is label matching, not an independently reviewed classification of every question.
Archive and tagging limits
3 papers · 195 imported questions. 0 have no topic tag and 195 have more than one imported tag, including metadata tags.
Each topic/year row counts unique tagged questions and their printed marks. Missing matches mean no matched tag data; they do not prove a topic was not tested.
04 · TURN COVERAGE INTO PRACTICE
Build a balanced revision plan
Combine historical coverage with your current strengths, mistakes and the complete syllabus.
Check your scope
Read every syllabus section and compare it with your preparation checklist.
Practise a topic
Choose a concept, attempt PYQs and record the reasoning behind mistakes.
Attempt a full paper
Use a previous paper to check timing and coverage across subjects.
